Trinity Bellwoods Park Overcrowding Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things During Pandemic

TORONTO Ontario Premier Doug Ford added his voice to the condemnation of people who crowded into a downtown park on Saturday during the ongoing COVID-19 crisis.

The images I saw yesterday, from Trinity Bellwoods Park in Toronto I thought it was a rock concert, Ford said during an update on Sunday. I was absolutely shocked.

Its understandable that people want to enjoy the nice weather, he said, but he urged Ontarians to exercise caution.

We just cant have that right now. Its just too many people too close, Ford said. Theres still a deadly virus amongst us. And if we allow it, it will spread. It will spread like wildfire.

Cases continue to mount in Ontario, with 460 confirmed cases reported on Sunday and 25 more deaths related to the virus. Close to half of provinces active cases are in the Toronto health region.

According to the city, thousands of people packed Trinity Bellwoods Park on one of the first warm days of the year, and numerous photos and video posted to social media showed the park-goers seemingly disregarding physical distancing requirements.

Trinity Bellwoods (@TrinityBellwood) May 23, 2020

Dr. Eileen de Villa, Torontos medical officer of health, was blunt in responding to the images of the public park gatherings, saying on Twitter Saturday: ... this could be selfish & dangerous behaviour that could set us back.

Keeping ones distance from others and regular hand-washing have been the top medical recommendations to prevent the spread of COVID-19, which bring symptoms that include fever, dry cough, and difficulty breathing.

Youre putting yourself, your parents, your grandparents, and your friends at risk. So, grow up, Joe Cressy, a city councillor and chair of the Toronto Board of Health, said on CP24 .

More than 700 people from Toronto have died to date due to COVID-19.

I understand that the photos of people in Trinity Bellwoods were disappointing today. It was a beautiful day & we all want to enjoy our city together, but this could be selfish & dangerous behaviour that could set us back. (1/3) pic.twitter.com/cKVj0DdBhh

I understand that the photos of people in Trinity Bellwoods were disappointing today. It was a beautiful day & we all want to enjoy our city together, but this could be selfish & dangerous behaviour that could set us back. (1/3) pic.twitter.com/cKVj0DdBhh

This week, the city reopened amenities in hundreds of parks. But its still illegal in the city to come within two metres of someone from a different household in parks and public squares. Violators of the bylaw could receive an immediate $1,000 ticket, though court fines that go up to $5,000 on conviction are also possible.

People are encouraged to go out, yes, but they must stay two metres apart from anyone who is not from their household. That is the science, said the city in a news release on Saturday night, condemning the Trinity Bellwoods gatherings as unacceptable.

I dont think its that fair blame Toronto police and bylaw officers for the mess at Trinity Bellwoods. Lets be very clear: police are not your parents. Just because you can doesnt mean you should. As adults we should be able exhibit control and informed decision making.

We've moved past the point of people being stupid. These are not stupid people. These are heartless people. They're smart people who know that they can carry the virus to someone much more vulnerable than them. They've been told that for months. They just don't care.

We've moved past the point of people being stupid. These are not stupid people. These are heartless people. They're smart people who know that they can carry the virus to someone much more vulnerable than them. They've been told that for months. They just don't care.

On Saturday, city bylaw officers issued 14 tickets in parks, and cautioned gave warnings to more than 370 people. Four of those tickets were given out in Trinity Bellwoods Park, said the city.

Bylaw officers were out in much greater numbers in the park on Sunday, with many areas blocked off to access and picnic tables piled in a corner so no one could use them.
